Step-by-Step Guide to Using the Keyboard Shortcut:

Step 1: Access Your Squarespace Dashboard:

Begin by logging into your Squarespace account and navigating to the dashboard of the project you want to work on. For this tutorial, I'll use my portfolio as an example.

Step 2: Use the Keyboard Shortcut:

Once you're in the dashboard, all you need to do is press the forward slash (/) key on your keyboard. This action activates the search function.

Step 3: Search for What You Need

After hitting the forward slash, simply type in what you're looking for. For instance, if you need to access the Custom CSS section, just type "CSS." The search function will quickly bring up the option to jump directly to the Custom CSS page. You can use this method to search for any page within your dashboard—domains, specific pages, settings, tools, etc.

This keyboard shortcut has been a game-changer for me, simplifying access to any part of the Squarespace dashboard with just a few keystrokes.
